trying to decide of who to go with for OBGYN!

I have my first and second choices for a ob-gyn but my third is Dr. David Garfinkel in Bedminster.  I am interested in him because he is  close to my home (5 minutes).  Has anyone heard of him?  I am pretty much sold on either Bissinger or Iammatteo ( even though I never met them), but everyone has been saying great things about them, but they are farther from my home.   Should distance be a factor in picking a dr?

  • I drive from Wayne to Morristown for my OB because I love them so much :)

  • Liz DP uses Garfinkel and I think Dana DDELO does too and love him.

    I don't live the closest to Bissinger's office but heard great things and wanted to be affliliated with a smaller group with a hospital with a NICU. I think if you are high risk and have frequent appointments distance may play a part, but since I live in bumble i was going to have to drive further to anyone anyway so I picked an office that I clicked with that had good vibes and good office staff too.

    IF you have specific questions u can probably page Liz or Dana about Garfinkel to see if you think you would click with him too.

  • For me with a pregnancy I wanted someone close to work and home so I wouldn't have to take much time off. GL
  • I drive from Bloomingdale to Morristown. For me it was more important that I have a dr that I love that is affiliated with a hospital that I wanted. (For the same reason my boys ped is in Madison). I was not comfortable with any of the the obs in my area and I didn't want to go to Chilton or St.Joes. 
  • I see Dr Garfinkel and love him and his practice! I go to the morristown office, so I'm not sure if he has partners in the bedminster office, but I do hight rec. Him!!

  • I saw Dr G and really really liked him. I loved his office staff too. I debated switching over to him for this pg- but the practice was with has 6 drs, which is important to me for being pregnant and delivery, etc. But I did like him a lot and would recommend him, infact I plan on switching over to him when I am done being pg.
